This is incredible, I think this is my new favorite of mine

I don't remember if I already asked this but do you have a mastodon or pixelfed or anything where I could follow you? Your art is really beautiful

not the person you replied to, but I wish someone had told me that rather than just downvoting me, that's helpful to know about and I only found out cause I came to try dig though the thread to see if there were clues as to why folks were so unhappy with my mentioning it 😅

Not everyone knows or keeps up with every blemish on a project's record

I don't use or care that much about vertical tabs, and it seems complicated how big if a deal this actually is, but florp might be worth taking a look at if you're not already familiar with it

I don't know a ton about it but I think it has a similar kind of niche and is more vertical tab focused

I didn't know that context about the guy who made the video, I've only seen his video about zen and his video about firefox, at first I thought you meant the commenter- thank you for the additional info, I don't exist much in dev spaces or follow what happens there and wouldn't have know he had baggage had you not mentioned it

I think the video contains enough helpful info about the gecko engine regardless of the guys trustworthiness, but I can definitely understand not taking his word at face value

The comments provide a lot of additional info, like that he gave credit to Samsung browser for adding features before firefox when it's chromium based, so the video isn't without its issues, but I still gained a lot of understanding of firefox's technical shortcomings from the specific examples provided. I was really only aware of user facing feature or ux issues

Regardless, hope you have a good one :)

Sorry for the late reply, I wish I had more but I think the only specific time I can remember is this comment on a video discussing Firefox's issues (its a pretty good video, even if I don't agree with every take in it)

Edit: wasn't sure if the link would open the comment correctly so I figured I'd take a screenshot

Its one of the top comments and its loved by the video creator so it shouldn't be hard to find if the link doesn't work right

Nah, you're all good, this has been a lovely conversion and I've appreciated your extra info :)

I hope you have a good day my friend 😊

I'm sad there are so few options for headphone jacks and/or small phones. I went with a zenfone 10 because it and xperia devices seemed like the only options, and the Zenfone seemed to suit my needs better, but it means I'll have to wait to try any custom ROMs.

And unfortunately, I'm still hoping to make this phone last a long time. We'll see how long I can keep it going

Oof... I don't find that as long or intense of a pattern as with brave but the behaviour to reach out and repeatedly bug the guy about his small blog post reflects strangely and poorly on his character :/ I had no idea kagi kinda came with baggage as well.

And yeah, it definitely is. Thats part of why I try really hard not to let perfect be the enemy of good. There is no perfect, and I still want to be involved in good where I can, to the extent that there is good available.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share a ton of additional context. I often have a hard time keeping in the loop about things and if I'm going to use imperfect things because I think they're better than the alternative, then I want to at least pay attention to and understand their imperfections

Thank you!

And yeah the fact that brave sucks so god damn much is frustrating. Brave is the best independent search engine with their own index (of the free options) in my opinion. At some point I need to try searx and kagi, but I prefer an independent engine rather than a meta search engine, and am broke as fuck 😅

If I understand correctly they're actually not directly a Mozilla project or something anymore. They're loosely connected, but not actually run by Mozilla.

Wasn't sure if there were better places to post this, feel free to cross-post if you know other fitting communities :)

While I do think the point about forking is true, it is worth acknowledging that the gecko engine is
a) very behind other browsers in terms of implemented functionality and standards, and
b) I've seen devs say on multiple occasions that because of the wide range of platforms it has officially supported over time (or other reasons), the codebase has become very hard to work with and apparently it's really hard to add new standards to it
